ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING

Introduction

Communication engineers plan, analyze, design, implement, operate, test, maintain and manage communications systems and networks. They play a key role in the ongoing development of the Internet and associated technologies.

We live in a big world. However by simply pressing a few buttons or clicking a mouse, a telephone call or email can reach Sydney from Sivakasi, in a matter of seconds - thanks to Electronics and Communication Engineers.

What do they do?

As Electronic Engineers, they design, develop, test and maintain electronic parts and systems used in computers, communications, navigation, industry and entertainment.

As Communication engineers, they may be involved in the:
Development of global positioning technologies which help in search and rescue operations.
Creation of video-conferencing facilities which bring people together from all over the world.
Design and maintenance of satellites which bring TV, telephone and Internet service into remote and rural regions.

The way your community will talk to the world 20 years from now is being developed by communications engineers today. If you want to help build that future and decide how it will look like for your people, you should consider becoming a communications engineer.
